Fex – FEX Release FEX-2512

๐Ÿšจ FEX-Emu v2512 just dropped โ€” and itโ€™s a GAME CHANGER for retro & modern gaming on ARM! ๐ŸŽฎ

Say goodbye to “FEXInterpreter” in your task manager โ€” now your real game names show up! ๐ŸŽฏ

JIT crashes? Gone. We auto-restart with a bigger buffer if things get tight โ€” smoother gameplay, zero panic. ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ

Code caching? Foundationโ€™s laid. Soon: lightning-fast game launches after the first run. ๐Ÿš€

CPU core count? FIXED. Retro emulators and multi-threaded apps now see the real number of cores โ†’ massive speed boosts.

io_uring? Temporarily disabled (ABI issues), but Node.js and SteamRT4 work again. ๐Ÿ™Œ

LRCPC2 instruction errata on Neoverse CPUs? Patched โ€” no more memory ordering bottlenecks in old games.

Plus: x87 stack fixes, glxtest bugs squashed, alloca leaks sealed, and deps updated (fmt, xxhash, catch2).

FEXConfig GUI? Smoother than ever. RootFS setup on Ubuntu 24.04+? Easier than ever.

Think of it as QEMUโ€™s cooler, faster cousin โ€” built for gamers who want to run DOS, Windows 98, or modern Proton titles on a Pi 5 or M1. ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ
